* Winds suddenly calm down. The most obvious sign is a dramatic decrease in wind speed. It can feel eerily calm and peaceful.
* The rain stops. The eye is a zone of clear skies and calm weather.
* The air pressure rises. As the eye passes, barometric pressure will increase rapidly. This is usually measured with a barometer, but you may notice it by feeling less pressure in your ears.
* The sky clears. You might even be able to see blue sky again.
Important Note: While the eye of a storm offers temporary respite, it's crucial to remember:
* The calm is only temporary. The other half of the storm will soon follow, with winds coming from the opposite direction.
* It's not a safe time to go outside. There is still danger of flying debris, tornadoes, and heavy rain.
Stay safe and listen to emergency officials for guidance.
